Difford & Tilbrook - Difford & Tilbrook

This month marks the thirtieth anniversary of Difford & Tilbrook, the only studio album release from Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook, the main songwriters from Squeeze. It went to number 47 in the UK; here in the US it spent fifteen weeks on the Billboard Album chart and peaked at number 55.
